...Maria, which they hope will be populated with conservative Catholics. The town will surround a colossal church, shaped like a pontiff's hat, with a 65-foot crucifix at the front door. They're also moving a university from Michigan to Florida, so the students and faculty can seed the town. If you're a parent who does not want your child to attend the Catholic elementary school, you will have to put your child on a school bus to be educated elsewhere in the county-Ave Maria plans no public schools.

Not only was the story risky, but it was to be told in a medium he had yet to master: celluloid. While the director, 51, had toyed with filmed plays and TV dramas, "Candy was like starting again in a new form," Armfield says. Roping in some theatrical mates, including Cloudstreet production designer Robert Cousins, he set about opening up the story of doomed junkie...
